LV Mar Tapas & Cocktails - Redwood City, California

Came here for a spontaneous weekend dinner while hanging out in down Redwood City. We were seated quickly. Sitting outside on the walking only street was nice.

Unfortunately the food really under impressed. The ceviche we had was actually pretty good with fresh seafood and a good sauce, but the filet mignon dish was swimming in a gross oil, and the carne asada tacos were criminally bland. Disappointed for a resto that had so many good reviews, hopefully it was just an off day for the cooks.

Delicious tapas dishes although a little on the expensive side. The outdoor seating was nice and we had reservations although they were taking walkins on Sunday right around lunch time. Love their free bread basket (taro, plantain, tortilla) chips with salsa. Tacos were tasty although on the smaller side. The lomo saltado (skirt steak) and grilled king salmon were both delicious.

Great place serving Mexican fusion tapas in Redwood City downtown. They have a lot of vegetarian options on the menu- the patatas con calabacin and flautas are delicious! The only plate that missed the mark was the potato dumplings - they were a bit chewy and lacked flavor. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal!

I love LV Mar. We’ve been coming here for years and the quality and food have continued to impress. Excellent food, best value on the peninsula for tacos, cocktails and a casual but elevated atmosphere. Kid friendly but nice enough for a special occasion. My favorites are the octopus and chorizo tacos, the house salad and the rice and shrimp. Awesome cocktails and a delightful atmosphere inside or outside. Excellent reliable for a night out or casual lunch. Gluten free options!

Place closes at 9pm on a weeekday. Good for small groups and you’d like to order food to share. We mostly ordered open faced tacos. Serves alcohol. Was just a bit uncomfortable when 9pm approached and servers started putting chairs up the tables as if they were closing. So that was our cue to leave.

Had brunch here and the French toast was the best French toast I’ve ever had! The other brunch dishes were good but kind of smaller than expected. Sometimes service was a little bit busy with other tables but I can’t blame them during these difficult times with the labor market.

We’ve also been here for tapas and the quesabirria is amazing too.

Went to this fun place to celebrate life. Had a fantastic time, the drinks, the food, the ambience, everything was perfect. Loved the empanadas, the scallops and the fish tacos. Everything was beautifully presented and was yummy.
I was a fan of the dessert at the end, but overall a great place to spend a fun evening. Plus it becomes a night club after 10. More perks to extend the evening a little longer.

Wonderful fusion of Spanish tapas and Mexican tacos! This is a great place to go with friends for a fun night out.
